Look. 727 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,890 Say, Jan, what errand did they give you? 728 01:07:32,940 --> 01:07:34,680 It's like this. 729 01:07:36,250 --> 01:07:39,990 I work at the organ factory -What kind of factory? 730 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:43,400 I am an organ builder.

Father, help me! -Silence! 753 01:09:08,590 --> 01:09:11,124 You can take the scoundrel with you. 754 01:09:11,174 --> 01:09:15,720 The monastery let us know you ran away. -I am not going to jail! Let me go! 755 01:09:15,770 --> 01:09:19,790 He stole my guilders. -I didn't do it. Father, help me! 756 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,680 Grandpa, he wouldn't do that to us. 757 01:09:22,730 --> 01:09:25,500 I don't care, that boy is a disgrace. 758 01:09:25,550 --> 01:09:28,540 You have to cut him off.

So you wish to visit your son Jan? -If you please, director. 778 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:13,310 They came for him last night. He said he was innocent, but that much money... 779 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:16,410 My husband said: Mother, go see him... 780 01:11:16,460 --> 01:11:20,790 ...and get him to tell the truth. -I am not in favor of visits. 781 01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:24,310 Parents are usually to blame when their kids are no good. 782 01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:28,400 I agree, but my husband has beaten him every single night. 783 01:11:28,450 --> 01:11:32,360 If I were to talk to him, he might tell me the truth. 784 01:11:32,410 --> 01:11:35,390 A mother crying just upsets the boys. 785 01:11:35,440 --> 01:11:38,485 No, sir, I...

How are you? -Fine. 788 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:51,600 We were shocked when they came for you last night. We miss you so much. 789 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:56,360 And your sisters keep asking: Mother, when is Jan coming back? 790 01:11:56,480 --> 01:12:00,000 And your father [...inaudible...] 791 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,858 Then why doesn't father visit me? Is he still mad at me? 792 01:12:03,908 --> 01:12:06,880 No. He just doesn't want to see you behind bars. 793 01:12:06,930 --> 01:12:10,090 You can also stay away if you think I stole it. 794 01:12:10,140 --> 01:12:13,791 Why won't you tell me the truth? -I am telling the truth! 795 01:12:14,070 --> 01:12:18,300 Your father wrote you a letter. Won't you take it? 796 01:12:18,510 --> 01:12:22,360 What for? -Then I will just leave it on your bed. 797 01:12:22,517 --> 01:12:25,620 You can read it when you are in a better mood. 798 01:12:25,670 --> 01:12:29,010 Here, Jan, I brought you some chocolate. 799 01:12:29,060 --> 01:12:33,642 I hid it under my apron since it wasn't allowed. Here, Jan, take it. 800 01:12:34,492 --> 01:12:38,720 Chocolate keeps me wide awake. Use it to keep your bellies full. 801 01:12:38,770 --> 01:12:44,752 You are also hungry.

Just don't think about it. 807 01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:10,230 My wife took my letter to the house of correction this morning. 808 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:12,643 I wrote to him very harshly... 809 01:13:12,990 --> 01:13:17,690 ...that he should confess to the truth. -Cut him off is what I say. 810 01:13:17,850 --> 01:13:22,490 We never lead him astray. I didn't and neither did his grandfather. 811 01:13:22,990 --> 01:13:27,760 We never dealt with the police. -Did you write him all that? 812 01:13:27,810 --> 01:13:30,310 Well, I can't remember exactly, but... 813 01:13:30,510 --> 01:13:33,810 ...but I wrote at the very top: To Jan Grovers. 814 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:40,190 And I wrote him... that everything his father said came true. 815 01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:44,090 That is what I always said. Shall we have another one? 816 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:46,389 The same. 817 01:13:46,490 --> 01:13:49,750 I wrote to him that it was his own fault. 818 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:55,024 And at the very end: Be honest. Yours sincerely, thy father. 819 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:58,660 That way he knows who sent him the letter. 820 01:13:58,710 --> 01:14:01,550 Magnificent. Cheers. 821 01:14:02,357 --> 01:14:03,458 Cheers. 822 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:13,820 When I lie awake at night, I can see my Jan... 823 01:14:13,870 --> 01:14:16,586 ...surrounded by thieves and murderers. 824 01:14:17,480 --> 01:14:20,460 How could a son do that to his father? 825 01:14:21,509 --> 01:14:25,221 Father... it is a disaster. 826 01:14:33,290 --> 01:14:35,120 What is that for? 827 01:14:37,070 --> 01:14:38,480 Another drink. 828 01:14:38,994 --> 01:14:45,727 All my shiny guilders stolen, by my own grandson. But I will cut him off! 829 01:14:46,220 --> 01:14:52,387 Jannes, write down our tab for my son. He will pay you next Saturday. 830 01:14:52,810 --> 01:14:54,950 That boy is a disaster. 831 01:14:58,120 --> 01:15:00,350 And to think his name is... 832 01:15:00,550 --> 01:15:04,557 ...Johannes Godefridus Bernardus. After me! 833 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:13,130 Johannes Godefridus Bernardus. After me! 834 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,315 One... two... 835 01:15:21,230 --> 01:15:23,855 ...three... four... 836 01:15:25,085 --> 01:15:27,990 What the heck, the clock has stopped. 837 01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,680 My guilders... 838 01:15:45,940 --> 01:15:50,230 Well, I'll be damned! Then the boy is innocent. 839 01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:57,075 Jan will be here shortly. It is fortunate that his grandfather found his money. 840 01:15:57,125 --> 01:16:02,470 Quite dumb, to hide his money in the clock and then to forget where he put it. 841 01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:05,640 Director, Grovers is here. -Send him in. 842 01:16:07,480 --> 01:16:13,220 Praise the Lord you are innocent, my boy. And now straight home for a nice meal. 843 01:16:13,270 --> 01:16:16,710 We can discuss it further then. -I am not going. 844 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:22,330 That Theresia will just whine about her muddied carpet. Put her in a monastery! 845 01:16:22,380 --> 01:16:27,448 They ought to put her in a coffin with nails and send the bloodhounds after her. 846 01:16:27,498 --> 01:16:32,030 But what are you saying, Jan!? -It's true. I had to sleep in a coffin. 847 01:16:32,136 --> 01:16:36,480 Jan, I had hoped you would always tell me the truth. -It's true! 848 01:16:36,530 --> 01:16:38,530 What is? -Theresia is a bitch! 849 01:16:38,580 --> 01:16:42,150 Ask Anna how she bullies her just because she was in jail. 850 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:48,560 Anna's the only one who cares for others. She always gave me currants buns. 851 01:16:49,350 --> 01:16:52,570 Believe me, superintendent. Three months in prison. 852 01:16:52,620 --> 01:16:58,510 Jailed for ninety days and nights gets to you. You can't get rid of it that easily. 853 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:02,800 They aren't gloves you can just take off. -Yes... -May I finish!? 854 01:17:02,850 --> 01:17:05,990 I can assure you that I always expected mischief. 855 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:10,330 To defile the pastor's sacred house... -What is the meaning of this? 856 01:17:10,380 --> 01:17:14,128 Hold on, my boy. What is going on in this "sacred house"? 857 01:17:14,178 --> 01:17:18,700 Father, I have often said that human nature is subject to certain laws. 858 01:17:18,750 --> 01:17:22,200 Bad tendencies can't be changed in a whim. They are... 859 01:17:22,250 --> 01:17:27,336 not like a pair of gloves you take off. I know that by now. Why is police here? 860 01:17:27,386 --> 01:17:30,150 Father? -Yes, Anna? 861 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:34,870 They're saying I stole Miss Theresia's trinkets. -Trinkets? 862 01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:40,080 The jewelry I inherited from my aunt. And she took the household money also. 863 01:17:40,130 --> 01:17:44,410 But, Father... I know nothing of this theft. 864 01:17:44,610 --> 01:17:47,923 I'm innocent, I swear! -I believe you, Anna. 865 01:17:47,973 --> 01:17:52,430 Father, the case is quite clear and leaves no room for discussion. 866 01:17:52,480 --> 01:17:54,340 It happened last night. 867 01:17:54,390 --> 01:17:58,470 You were in the chapel while the lady was having worries, correct? 868 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:03,150 I was having worries. With the boning in my corset as a matter of fact. 869 01:18:03,350 --> 01:18:07,630 Is your corset also proof now? It must be a mistake, Theresia. 870 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:12,310 Mistake? I found a chain with a medallion here in the kitchen. 871 01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:16,120 Here, in the pocket of her apron. Here you go. 872 01:18:16,170 --> 01:18:19,280 I didn't do it, Father. Honestly! 873 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:24,110 Good Lord, will you stop crying! Look at me. 874 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:27,070 Do you know more of this, yes or no? -No! 875 01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:32,350 Then someone else committed the theft. -But Father, it is as clear as crystal. 876 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,840 She broke into the dresser, put the money and jewelry... 877 01:18:35,890 --> 01:18:39,070 ...in her apron's pockets and went to the kitchen. 878 01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:43,600 There she emptied her apron, but forgot the chain. 879 01:18:43,650 --> 01:18:46,360 Miss, will you come with us to the station. 880 01:19:02,970 --> 01:19:06,040 Hey Pietje, come here, come here! -I say... 881 01:19:07,470 --> 01:19:09,620 I thought they had locked you up. 882 01:19:09,670 --> 01:19:12,870 Why did you even go home last night? -Anna is... 883 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:17,230 Anna? -The pastor's Anna. She got some ten lashes in the kitchen. 884 01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:20,990 They took her to jail in a police van. -Problem solved then. 885 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:25,600 I took the jewels 'cause I thought you weren't coming. Let's make haste! 886 01:19:25,650 --> 01:19:29,850 The boat is nearby. -No, Pietje! Anna is in prison. 887 01:19:29,900 --> 01:19:33,710 If we don't hurry, we will never reach America. 888 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:36,160 Should Anna go to jail for this? 889 01:19:36,550 --> 01:19:40,530 Will you admit to the theft? -I don't want Anna to go to jail. 890 01:19:40,580 --> 01:19:44,940 She is to be married in September. -Do you want to end up in jail? -No. 891 01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:50,970 I am not going back to jail. -Then let's go. Come on. 892 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:57,470 No! I will tell them Anna didn't do it. -Then they will get us both! You're mad. 893 01:19:57,520 --> 01:20:01,460 I won't go to the house of correction. -Better than jail. 894 01:20:01,510 --> 01:20:05,230 Don't bring misfortune upon yourself, you idiot. Jan! 895 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,280 Even if she was in jail ten times,... 896 01:20:10,330 --> 01:20:14,800 ...should we deprive the poor creature of her one chance to decency? 897 01:20:14,850 --> 01:20:19,410 Decency... As decent as that rascal Jan. 898 01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:24,550 You barely got him out of jail and the scoundrel ran right off. 899 01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:28,030 Your kindness has indeed been rewarded. As for Anna... 900 01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:32,975 She didn't even clean properly today. Now I have to do the maid's job. 901 01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:36,040 Will you excuse me, Father. 902 01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:43,960 Where is the pastor? Father? -Jan? 903 01:20:44,010 --> 01:20:46,790 Father! Anna didn't... -Yes? 904 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:49,230 Anna is... -What about Anna? 905 01:20:49,510 --> 01:20:52,770 Anna didn't do it! Anna isn't... -What!? 906 01:20:52,820 --> 01:20:54,900 Pietje Puk and I stole it. 907 01:20:56,340 --> 01:21:03,270 What is that, my boy? Is it really true? -Yes, Father. Anna is innocent. 908 01:21:06,980 --> 01:21:09,304 My opinion of Jan is simply this: 909 01:21:09,708 --> 01:21:15,400 He has never lied to me and I am convinced that he is telling the truth. 910 01:21:16,474 --> 01:21:21,559 He has quite an imagination but that isn't necessarily a bad trait. 911 01:21:21,730 --> 01:21:27,430 For those with imagination, two roads lie open. That of good and that of evil. 912 01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:30,640 The road to heaven and the road to hell. 913 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:36,550 I always knew divine providence would put him at a crossroad. 914 01:21:36,780 --> 01:21:38,976 And he took the right road. 915 01:21:39,026 --> 01:21:44,020 He took the blame and didn't want someone else,... 916 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:47,940 ...my maid Anna, to be innocently jailed. 917 01:21:48,700 --> 01:21:51,640 I thank you, Father. You may step down. 918 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:55,760 Jan Grovers. -Rise, the president is talking to you. 919 01:21:56,230 --> 01:21:57,530 Rise. 920 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,230 Didn't you hear me speaking to you? 921 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:05,990 No, sir, I... I didn't hear a thing. -But Jan, what were you thinking of? 922 01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:11,949 If brother Nardus has finished his organ. -What organ? 923 01:22:12,124 --> 01:22:13,610 What organ? 924 01:22:14,373 --> 01:22:19,490 Not a simple organ as the one at the fair but a big one for the Holy Mass. 925 01:22:19,825 --> 01:22:25,470 It has an inside just like people have. With lungs and vocal cords. 926 01:22:25,810 --> 01:22:30,270 Because without it a person can't sing or whistle. 927 01:22:32,570 --> 01:22:34,810 Order. -Order! 928 01:22:39,100 --> 01:22:42,600 A restraining order for them? -No, no. Now look, Jan. 929 01:22:42,770 --> 01:22:45,580 You confessed to the theft, didn't you? 930 01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:50,280 Indeed I have, my lord. But I will never do it again. 931 01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:54,890 It is about time you felt regret. -Yes, yes, yes... 932 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:56,500 Gotcha! 933 01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,620 What are you doing? -Catching a fly. 934 01:23:00,670 --> 01:23:04,280 Order! You must be serious and pay more attention. -Yes. 935 01:23:04,330 --> 01:23:07,850 Do you realize you can go to jail for what you did? 936 01:23:07,900 --> 01:23:09,180 I do, my lord. 937 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:11,190 Take a seat. 938 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:16,390 We will now proceed with the main witness, the psychiatrist. 939 01:23:16,440 --> 01:23:17,940 That's fine by me. 940 01:23:19,300 --> 01:23:20,500 Order! 941 01:23:24,100 --> 01:23:26,280 Professor Doctor Moltenius. 942 01:23:26,420 --> 01:23:31,880 Be so kind as to bring these two animals with you. I need them for my statement. 943 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:37,580 Say, am I still on for today? -Beats me. It's the shrink's turn now. 944 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:48,360 Jan Grovers is without question a prolonged case of degeneration,... 945 01:23:48,410 --> 01:23:51,280 ...accentuated by a most unfavorable environment. 946 01:23:51,330 --> 01:23:54,630 To show to you the influence of the environment... 947 01:23:54,680 --> 01:23:58,104 ...I took the liberty of bringing two laboratory animals. 948 01:23:58,154 --> 01:24:03,430 I gave one mouse the most favorable living conditions for an entire year. 949 01:24:03,480 --> 01:24:06,700 The other mouse, however, the most unfavorable. 950 01:24:06,750 --> 01:24:10,430 It was malnourished and locked up in a dark cupboard. 951 01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:15,720 I can prove that the second animal, due to its poor living conditions,... 952 01:24:15,937 --> 01:24:21,633 ...the inferior environment, is mentally at a lower level than the first animal. 953 01:24:21,683 --> 01:24:25,870 I will open their skulls once the experiment has been concluded. 954 01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:30,430 Let us take Jan Grovers. Due to his poor social conditions... 955 01:24:30,480 --> 01:24:34,330 ...he stayed backward and is thus unaccountable for his actions. 956 01:24:34,380 --> 01:24:39,007 In my opinion, this case belongs not here but in a reformatory. 957 01:24:39,460 --> 01:24:41,370 I thank you, Professor. 958 01:24:41,610 --> 01:24:46,700 It is now the prosecutor's turn. -Honorable Lord President of the Court. 959 01:24:46,750 --> 01:24:53,009 The accused Pietje Puk is clearly guilty as is shown by finding the jewels on him. 960 01:24:53,207 --> 01:24:57,790 Jan Grovers' statement is true but I find him, unlike the psychiatrist,... 961 01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:01,840 ...fully accountable. Laws are meant to be obeyed! 962 01:25:02,130 --> 01:25:05,960 But there are mitigating circumstances in Jan Grovers' case... 963 01:25:06,010 --> 01:25:09,673 ...since he turned himself in as an accomplice. 964 01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:13,960 I thank you. Master Vermeer. 965 01:25:17,870 --> 01:25:23,100 Honorable Lord President of the Court. I shan't present Grovers better than he is. 966 01:25:23,150 --> 01:25:25,610 He is an accomplice to theft. 967 01:25:25,670 --> 01:25:30,760 But my lords, just consider how little real happiness this boy has known... 968 01:25:30,810 --> 01:25:36,220 ...compared to other boys who grow up in an atmosphere of kindness and love... 969 01:25:36,270 --> 01:25:38,260 ...and have a secure life. 970 01:25:38,310 --> 01:25:45,440 My lords, send the boy outside, to a reformatory in God's open country. 971 01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:51,190 Give him the opportunity to become human and to forever stay out of prison. 972 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:57,580 My lords, do not destroy a youthful life and be lenient in your judgment. 973 01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:18,318 Jan, it is time we said our goodbyes. -Father, could I ask you something? 974 01:26:19,254 --> 01:26:21,420 What have you been up to? -Well... 975 01:26:21,470 --> 01:26:24,840 Do you remember the mice in the court? -Yes. 976 01:26:24,890 --> 01:26:27,250 Couldn't you take care of them? 977 01:26:27,300 --> 01:26:30,990 He wanted to cut them open but they are such nice animals. 978 01:26:31,095 --> 01:26:35,374 Aren't the mice in the professor's lab? -No, they are here. 979 01:26:36,210 --> 01:26:37,710 I stole them. 980 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:40,870 You take them, Father. 981 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:47,000 It is for sure the last time I will steal. And Father, many thanks. 982 01:26:47,050 --> 01:26:50,150 Can you hear that? It is Brother Nardus.
